destruction of Syria's
chemical ******* stockpile said he still hoped Damascus could meet a
final deadline of June 30 but it might
miss that target. Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's government agreed to destroy its
chemical ******* arsenal by mid-year as part of a U.S.-Russian agreement negotiated after a
chemical attack last August that killed hundreds of people around Damascus. It has handed over roughly half of its stockpile to a joint mission with the United Nations but is several weeks behind schedule, blaming security problems for the delays. "I think that some targets have **t been met, but the
deadline of 30 June still remains our target, and we think we can finish the
destruction by that time, or close to that time," Ahmet Uzumcu, head of the Organisation for the Prohibition of
chemical *******, said.
